Abstract: To easily produce a connector provided with a partial engagement
preventing function. 
     A movable member 30 movably provided in a male connector housing along
an engagement direction is biased by coil springs 40 toward a front end position
with respect to the engagement direction. When the engagement is stopped when
connector housings 10, 20 are partly engaged, the connector housings 10, 20 are
separated away from each other by the forces of the coil springs 40, thereby
informing an operator that the connector housings 10, 20 were partly engaged.
The movable member 30 is formed with an engaging hole 31 which extends in a
direction normal to its moving direction and is engageable with a lock arm 12
provided on the female connector housing 10. By providing an engaging portion
with the lock arm 12 in the movable member 30, the connector housing can have
a simpler construction and can be easily produced unlike a prior art male connector
housing which has a complicated construction because the engaging portion is
provided therein.

decelerating, comprising establishing a table of base pulse width values and gain constant values, 
establishing as the pulse width of the strobe signal the product of a base pulse width value and 
a gain constant value selected from the table and corresponding to the instantaneous velocity of 
the ticket (508) etc., relative to the printhead (84) at a given time during printing at which the 
strobe signal is to be produced, the table being established prior to printing. The invention also 
includes a demand printer (60) for carrying out the above defined method.

Abstract: The instant invention pertains to a low-weight and water-resistant composite panel
made from an open cell core, such as honeycomb, using the resin transfer molding (RTM)
process. The open cell core is sealed to a degree of at least 95 %, and even up to 100 %,

Abstract: One or more portions (221) of a database (220) which a primary server
(106) uses to process client requests are duplicated (211) on one or more
supplemental servers (105). As the clients demand for service increases and the
processing load on the primary server becomes excessive (400), the primary server
automatically off-loads the processing of those portions of the client requests that
require one or more of the duplicated portions onto the supplemental servers by
substituting (402) a secondary page (253) or a secondary object in its database that
points to the one or more duplicated portions in the supplemental servers for a
corresponding primary page (252) or a primary object in its database that points to
the one or more duplicated portions in its database. The supplemental servers then
serve the portions of the client requests that require the one or more of the
duplicated portions. As demand for service decreases and the primary server
becomes underloaded (404), it automatically restores (406) the primary page or the
primary object in its database and resumes serving the entire client requests.

applies a force to increase the volume thereof. When the slider
decreases the volume, the valve opens the outlet to drain ink and
air from the volume-variable chamber. When the valve increases
the volume, the valve closes the outlet to produce a suction force.

Abstract: The structure of the present invention enables static
electricity to be discharged quickly and stably when the user
manually touches a fuel tank cap 10 to open or close the cap 10. The
fuel tank cap 10 has a casing body 20 and a cover member 40 with four
discharge projections 46 for discharging static electricity to a
filler neck FN of a fuel tank. The four discharge projections 46 are
arranged in a third radial direction D3-D4 that has an angle of 45
degrees with respect to both a first radial direction D1 and a second
radial direction D2. The first radial direction D1, in which a
handle member 42 of the cover member 40 is arranged, gives the
maximum contraction of the cover member 40, whereas the second radial
direction D2 gives the minimum contraction of the cover member 40.
Namely the four discharge projections 46 are arranged on a circle
about the center of the cover member 40 to reduce the effect of resin
contraction.
